Back in AugustMorrissey announced that he curated a new Ramones greatest hits collection by request of the Ramones' management, plus selected the sleeve image for the release. According to a new report published in Modern Vinyl, it appears that the collection, titled Morrissey Curates The Ramones, will be released on November 28th for Black Friday Record Store Day. So far the report in Modern Vinyl has not been confirmed by Morrissey or his management, however if true, the release will be one of the most sought after releases -- less than 5 thousand copies are being pressed. Take a look at the rumored tracklisting and read the whole report over at Modern Vinyl via Int'l Playboy.

UPDATE (10/21): The Record Store Day website has confirmed that Morrissey Curates The Ramones will be released for Black Friday Record Store Day on November 28th. From the listing:"Morrissey, being a big Ramones fan, particularly of the early years, had always wanted to compile a "best of" album and this year he got his wish. This compilation reflects Morrissey's experience of listening to the band for the first time. With the sad passing of Tommy recently, both management and Morrissey felt this was a fitting tribute. The use of the Union Jack on the cover reflects both how important the band were to the UK music scene but also how the UK embraced them and their sound. The photo on the back cover by Danny Fitzgerald is evocative of the period and was selected by Morrissey."

...hang the dj

...hang the dj is the headquarters for my old radio show Time Warp, which aired on 89X radio until March 2017. I am currently hosting a new, independent, internet-based version of Time Warp. New episodes post Sunday mornings around 9am ET. Stream the show archives here or here.

...hang the dj is a music blog serving as a complement to my streaming program. As such, mostly old school and classic alternative bands are featured, however occasionally new music from shoegaze, dream pop, psych, post-punk, and darkwave genres will be featured. If you have a worthy music project that fits one of these genres, feel free to get in touch via email.
